How to Get Mathematica

Mathematica is currently installed in the following locations:

Computer Labs: All general or public-access labs. Many departmental labs have Mathematica installed
as well.

Computer Clusters: UNC's Mathematica license can be used for grid computing. If you are interested
in using Mathematica for parallel computing on a dedicated cluster, or in a distributed
grid environment, please let Paul Fish at Wolfram Research know.

feedback Are you Interested in installing Mathematica elsewhere? Please let IT or Paul Fish at Wolfram Research know.

Tutorials

Mathematica

The first three tutorials are excellent for new users, and can be assigned to students
as homework to learn Mathematica outside of class time.

Hands-on Start to MathematicaFollow along in Mathematica as you watch this multi-part screencast that teaches you the basics—how to create
your first notebook, calculations, visualizations, interactive examples, and more.

What's New in Mathematica 11Provides a list of new functionality in Mathematica 11, and links to documentation
and examples for these new features—including 3D printing, audio processing, machine
learning and neural networks, and text and language processing.

How To TopicsAccess step-by-step instructions ranging from how to create animations to basic syntax
information.

Mathematica Online

Hands-on Start to Mathematica Online (video)This tutorial screencast series provides step-by-step instructions to get you started
with Mathematica Online—from creating your first notebook complete with text, calculations,
visualizations, and interactive examples, to sharing your notebook with others for
collaboration and viewing through the Wolfram Cloud.

Resources for educators

Mathematica for Teaching and Education—Free video course Learn how to make your classroom dynamic with interactive models, explore computation
and visualization capabilities in Mathematica that make it useful for teaching practically any subject at any level, and get best-practice
suggestions for course integration.

How To Create a Lecture Slideshow—Video tutorial Learn how to create a slideshow for class that shows a mixture of graphics, calculations,
and nicely formatted text, with live calculations or animations.

Research with Mathematica

Rather than requiring different toolkits for different jobs, Mathematica integrates
the world's largest collection of algorithms, high-performance computing capabilities,
and a powerful visualization engine in one coherent system, making it ideal for academic
research in just about any discipline.
